Almost Perfect

So many awesome things have been happening lately, it's nice to have reasons to smile again.

I met with my advisor last Monday and he is AWESOME. He's got his ears pierced like there's no tomorrow, his arms are covered in tats, and he's one of the most brilliant people on the planet. I registered for summer and fall courses, so depending on the job situation in the coming school year, I could potentially be done with grad school next summer. HOTT.

Speaking of next year and the job deal, I have an interview for Park on Wednesday. I can't say too much about this right now because there's a lot going on there with that, so you'll just have to wait, but I'm smiling, so you at least know it's a good thing.

The best part of grad school: FOOTBALL TICKETS!!!!!! I ordered my tickets, woohoo, and am psyched to be there for Pelini's first season as a head coach. My stomach is doing somersaults just thinking about how awesome it will be to have a coach who actually understands Nebraska football. I don't expect to have a national championship in a season, but give Pelini some time and he's going to do great things with the program.

And speaking of football...yesterday was the Spring Game. AWESOME. It was a lot of fun and I am not at all surprised that 80,000+ turned out for it. Afterwards Tim and I went to Buzzard Billy's for dinner, our waiter was super cute...more on that in a couple days, HOPEFULLY. After dinner I drove Tim back to his car and we ended up sitting on the swings at a nearby park for like, an hour and a half. It was just such a nice day and neither of us wanted to go inside, so we just sat around and talked about, quite possibly, everything ever. He is also searching for a new place to live. House and apartment hunting SUCKS.

All in all, things are going well. I finally have all my financial aid shit done, I'll be back in Burnett this summer, I think I found a sweet new apartment ($525 total, utilities and all) and in general, I'm diggin' my life. Jordan is still being a douche, but whatever, I'm over it. At least, I'm over his bullshit and that whole mess. I don't need people in my life dragging me down. I've cut a few people out and it just feels good. I'm sorry to see those friendships end, but if we're not in each other's lives to help one another then what's the point? No use pretending. I miss the way the friendships used to be but hey, people change and you can't dwell on it.

I'm off to the gym to work out and tan. I love being awesome.

Peace.
